Reminder:One more day to get your LO's in. This must be a busy month for a lot of you because we don't have a lot of entries so far. Don't let that Scenic Route kit away so easy!thescrappiest@frontiernet.net

This was my last month to work withScrapBuck.com. If you haven't checked them out yet, why not?? Someone asked me about the quality of their products because they said their prices were too good to be true. Lemme' tell you, their prices are amazing, its true, but their quality is excellent!! They have sent me the cutest stuff these past 3 months. I noticed there are a few Cosmo Cricut items in the store now too. I know I will be shopping there myself soon!

Here's what they sent me for July:

Cute stuff, hugh? Amazing all of this would cost you around $30.00!

I made quite a few cards and a couple LOs

You know what they say, when one door closes another one opens. Well, I made the design team for Serendipity Scrapbooks! Yay me!! I am so excited, this is the one I've been wanting! Their kits are so amazing!! I can't wait to get my hands on them. Their forum is always hoppin too. Go check them out!
